Tips for Winter Bathing

First off, these are tips for bathing your DOG, or most any pet for that matter, in the colder, winter months. If you could use a few personal hygiene pointers please stop reading now and contact the professionals at the Shui Spa. Onward to a few important guidelines for bathing that dirty dog when its chilly outside.

Rule number one: Keep EVERYTHING warm!Turn up the heat in the house, bath in warm water and dry off completely using a nice warm towel. Following these steps will help prevent your pooch from catching a chill when they make a break for the outdoors.

Rule number two: Keep everything DRY!Trying to bath a dog in a bathtub, shower or sink isn’t easy and we can’t prevent them from doing that shaky wiggle thing that sends water everywhere. So, plan on immediately covering them with a towel after the bath task is complete. Hopefully, this will capture most of the water so it doesn’t end up on your walls and ceiling.

Rule number three: Use good quality products!
